I got the eBay one also and it was actually quite convincing because,
when I clicked on the link in the email, the domain name in the Safari
address bar was 'signin.ebay.com'. Can someone enlighten me as to how
this is technically possible?

Description:
A weakness has been reported in Safari, which can be exploited by malicious
people to trick users into visiting a malicious website by obfuscating URLs
displayed in the status bar.

The problem is that the browser fails to show the correct URL in the status
bar if an image control has been enclosed in a hyperlink and uses a form to
specify the destination URL. This may cause a user to follow a link to a
seemingly trusted website when in fact the browser opens a malicious
website.

The spams that piss me off most are the ones from Brazil that have URLs
to viruses/trojans, I now have about 20 sites that are firewalled
permanently because they keep comming and keep pointing to the same sites
